rear seat risers
Does anyone have experience with rear seat risers in a D130 ?
Does this really improve comfort ?

I found a out-of-the-box solution with a company named FAR https://farcorners.co.uk/product/far-defen...at-risers/

Kinda expensive for some a pieces of 2" tubing (that's what it basically is)

As I'm about to install a 11 gall. water tank beneath the rear seat box and the available space is rather tight, I could easily opt for a frame in between floor and seatbox.
This would give me AND more space for the tank AND raise the seats - A quick win-win imo...

So, looking for hands-on experiences with raised rear seatsin the 130

These lift the front of the seat up which tips the backrest backwards making the seats much more confortable. However, in a double cab I believe the backrest might be fixed and therefore can't tip back any further?

I have the Far Corners protype seat risers and they do a great job making the seats more comfortable and does allow me to store the pedal lock under them now. James

Hi, any chance someone with these could post the dimensions, front plate and box section?

Also how do they effect the folding forward of the seats?

There is a company in China who mod the seats to recline which I would love. never seen any other reference to that being done.
